Calcined Alumina Unlike the blocky, fractured crystals of fused alumina, Saint-Gobain Surface Conditioning's calcined aluminas are processed single platey crystals with tunable phase and physical properties. Our calcined aluminas are manufactured from high-quality calcined alumina feed stock and designed with tight particle size distributions for an optimal scratch-free finish. For the ultimate finish, we offer a wet processed product that further reduces the degree of primary crystal agglomeration. Calcined alumina offers a lower-cost option to our premium seeded-gel alumina while maintaining relatively high polishing rates and good surface finish. The platey shape and hardness of this abrasive grain allows it to perform well when lapping harder materials. Saint-Gobain offers both dry and wet processed calcined alumina in a wide selection of particle distribution, solids concentration, pH regime and purity that can be custom engineered to meet your material removal rate and finish requirements.795679587995 Sub-micron Calcined AluminaSaint-Gobain Surface Conditioning's sub-micron calcined aluminum oxide particles (99%+ purity) are suspended in aqueous solution, designed for use in electronics and industrial slurry applications. They are offered with minimal additives and are intended as the particle additive to your polishing slurry formulations. Our sub-micron calcined alumina particles are available in aqueous solutions from 0.28 to 2um at solids loading 2055% with pH 3.5-8.

Saint-Gobain Surface Conditioning's 83008350 alumina features low hygroscopy, easily disperses in aqueous and organic vehicles, and has high interaction to most binders. The historically consistent 0.5um median particle size and large particle control can be extended to custom particle sizes for specific applications upon request. This alumina is available in free-flowing powder (8300) or pre-dispersed in aqueous vehicle (8350) up to a 55% solids concentration for ease of use.
